<p>Given a binary search tree (BST), find the lowest common ancestor (LCA) node of two given nodes in the BST.</p>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p>According to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_ancestor" target="_blank">definition of LCA on Wikipedia</a>: “The lowest common ancestor is defined between two nodes <code>p</code> and <code>q</code> as the lowest node in <code>T</code> that has both <code>p</code> and <code>q</code> as descendants (where we allow <strong>a node to be a descendant of itself</strong>).”</p>

<pre>
 | 
						|
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [6,2,8,0,4,7,9,null,null,3,5], p = 2, q = 8
 | 
						|
<strong>Output:</strong> 6
 | 
						|
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The LCA of nodes 2 and 8 is 6.

<pre>
 | 
						|
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [6,2,8,0,4,7,9,null,null,3,5], p = 2, q = 4
 | 
						|
<strong>Output:</strong> 2
 | 
						|
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The LCA of nodes 2 and 4 is 2, since a node can be a descendant of itself according to the LCA definition.

 | 
						|
<ul>
 | 
						|
	<li>The number of nodes in the tree is in the range <code>[2, 10<sup>5</sup>]</code>.</li>
 | 
						|
	<li><code>-10<sup>9</sup> <= Node.val <= 10<sup>9</sup></code></li>
 |

	<li><code>p</code> and <code>q</code> will exist in the BST.</li>
